    In fairness, the NASA Engineer can’t get NPM to behave either. That’s why we don’t send JavaScript to space. (Edit: Lol. I guess we totally do send JavaScript into space.)

    Or do we? Now I desperately want to know what the first piece of JavaScript to run in space was/will be? It did/will mark the exact moment that we stopped taking space seriously.

      The touchscreen controls and displays in SpaceX crew capsules are web based. So JavaScript is going to space pretty often.

        Remember how the Titan sub used a game controller and everyone called them out? I think I’d still feel safer.

        ok, but a real spacefaring organisation though? One that isn’t run by a fucking idiot?

          SpaceX is quite “real”. No other company is even close to it’s tech, low cost, and launch cadence. It’s because it’s run by Gwynne Shotwell, the President of SpaceX, who is skilled at keeping Musk away from ruining it.
